Quiet at Leicester defeat Awoniyi had three shots (one on target) in Monday's 4-0 loss versus Leicester City.

Impact Awoniyi paced his side in shots for this contest, but he was largely contained by a composed Leicester back line. Given the revolving-door nature of the starting XI in Nottingham, this squad looks terribly out of sync and disconnected across the pitch. Aston Villa presents a bounce-back opportunity of sorts next Monday, but it's difficult to trust any Forest attackers for fantasy purposes right now.
